Third-generation (of 5) myoelectric hand prosthesis with high grip strength, anatomical design, and precise control. VINCENTevolution3 / 3+ Modern look | 4-channel control | Anatomical design | Higher grip force | Compact, lightweight, robust Numerous grasps | Various wrist types | Easy operation without additional aids | Optionally available in titanium The third generation of the hand prosthesis series, VINCENTevolution3 features a multi-award-winning anatomical design concept and the proven control strategy of VINCENTevolution2. At the same time, it scores with twice the grip strength of its predecessor model, millimeter precision between the thumb and index finger, and an overall higher load-bearing capacity of the hand. The wearing comfort of the VINCENT hand series also stands out in the new model series due to the low prosthesis weight. The most striking innovation was achieved in terms of dimensions. While VINCENTevolution2 was only available in size M, VINCENTevolution3 anatomically reproduces all the usual sizes of an adult hand in sizes XS, S, M, L and XL. Sizes S and XS are currently the smallest multi-articulating hand prostheses on the market and could already be suitable for children and adolescents. The basic version of the VINCENTevolution3 is available in a stable aluminum alloy or optionally with finger components made of high-strength titanium. In addition, prosthesis wearers can choose between four different wrist options. Like all VINCENT prostheses, the third generation is equipped with a vibrotactile sense of touch and gesture-controlled handle selection. The hand can be worn in combination with a textile cosmetic glove from GF. glove factory UG, silicone or without a glove. NEW: VINCENTevolution3+ The VINCENTevolution3+ is the waterproof design variant of the VINCENTevolution3. Hand washing under running water is possible without any problems, provided that the design of the prosthesis stem also permits this. An already purchased VINCENTevolution3 with splash water protection IP64 can be upgraded to a VINCENTevolution3+ with protection against temporary submersion IP67 at any time. - Contact your service technician for more information.

High-performance sports prosthesis with flexible, shock-absorbing wrist for safe training up to 200 kg, ideal for athletes and everyday work. VINCENTwork | Work prosthesis The VINCENTwork prosthesis system is an orthopedic aid for everyday work but also for competitive athletes. In particular, training with heavy weights is an important training discipline in numerous sports. Previous fittings in the field of prosthetics were not designed for the high loads involved in competitive sports. The new prosthesis series makes it possible to train with weights of up to 200 kg. Snatching and alternating loads are also permitted without any problems at the maximum weights. A special feature is the flexible wrist. This allows a movement compensation between the training weight and the forearm stem. The joint flexes in all directions in a damped manner and also allows unlimited rotation compensation. Shocks and tensile forces are elastically absorbed and damped. The concept allows improved, symmetrical training with both arms and thus supports a natural movement pattern. This not only makes training more efficient, but also less stressful for the joints and the entire musculoskeletal system. Equipped with a shock-absorbing, rotating and angle-compensating wrist, the sports prosthesis enables safe training without limits. Flyer VINCENTwork

The history of Vincent Systems: From its founding in 2009 to product innovations and international expansion – high-tech in prosthetics. History of the Fluidhand and the VINCENTevolution 1998 Fluidhand 1 thin foil soft robot hand with 5DOF, 5iDOF This first soft hand consists of thin foil layers, which have been joined together to form more complex drives in a sandwich construction. Five fingers, built up from 6 foil layers each, functionally welded in pairs, with the middle two foils forming the skeletal structure filled with epoxy resin. The outer two foil layers each form a fluidic muscle. For this purpose, two thin films were welded together in such a manner that chambers were formed in a row and connected to each other. When this structure is inflated with a gas or liquid, it contracts by about 20% of its length, similar to the natural muscle, and the finger curls up like a bow. Read more 1999 Fluidhand 2 silicon tube soft sobot hand with 16DOF, 11iDOF The new planar technology for manufacturing fluidic drives and kinematics was therefore ideally suited for actively moving miniature catheters and endoscopes. However, the forces achievable with planar film drives, which operate at a working pressure of 0.5-1 bar, were too low for the construction of an artificial hand. To generate higher grasping forces, a correspondingly higher working pressure had to act in the fluidic drives. For Fluidhand 2, “artificial muscles” based on thin silicone hoses were therefore used, which were sheathed with a flexurally flexible, stretch-resistant fabric made of polyamide. Read more 2000 Fluidhand 3 rubber bulg soft hand prosthesis with 10DOF, 1iDOF With the third generation of the Fluidhand, Schulz transferred the technology of flexible fluid actuators to a hand prosthesis. To achieve higher grasping forces, the drives were modified for grasping even heavy objects. The unfolded silicone tubes reinforced with fabric were replaced by miniature folded bellows, which in turn were encased in fabric and attached to aluminum joints in the folds by nylon threads to keep their shape. Three drive elements in each finger, with the two distal bellows coupled together, and two drives in the thumb allow 14 joint axes to move in this hand, equivalent to 14 DOF at 10 iDOF. The fluid actuators were driven by means of miniature hydraulics. The control system, consisting of pump, valve, electronics, sensors and tank, was connected to the prosthesis via a hose approximately 1 m long. The hydraulic unit was the size of a portable telephone and was worn on the belt. Read more 2001 Fluidhand 4 rubber bulg soft hand prosthesis with 10DOF, 6iDOF The Fluidhand 4 has 10 flexible bellows drives, each of which, when pressurized, angles an aluminum joint by 90 degrees. Stretching is achieved by suction of the drive medium and by additional elastic bands. Each long finger has two drives that are fluidically coupled to each other and each leads to a common control valve in the metacarpus. The thumb has two individually movable drives, each of which is actuated by a separate valve. The drive medium is water. This hand prosthesis operates hydraulically for the first time. A miniature pump draws the fluid from an elastic reservoir in the forearm and pumps it at up to 6 bar via the valve bank into the bellows drive chambers. The pump and valves are controlled by a microprocessor in the hand, and the prosthesis wearer gives the control commands via myoelectric sensors. Read more 2002 Fluidhand 5 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 8DOF, 5iDOF The Fluidhand 5 was designed with the aim of integrating all system components of miniature hydraulics into the metacarpals in order to make the hand compatible with established socket systems. The prosthesis can be connected to all standard prosthetic sockets via a quicksnap wrist. Both the myoelectric sensors and the energy storage of the socket are used. The pump, fluid tank, valve bank and controller are located in and on the metacarpus. With the reduction in tank size, the number of fluidic drive was reduced to 8. The ring finger and little finger are flexed over one drive each. In the weight-optimized frame in sandwich construction, the elastic finger abduction was integrated. Five valves control the 8 drives of the hand, with the ring, little and middle fingers being hydraulically connected to each other. Read more 2003 Fluidhand 6 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 4DOF, 3iDOF The Fluidhand 6 is a particularly compact version of the hydraulic hand prosthesis, reduced to the essentials. The index, middle and ring fingers are each moved in the base joint via a flexible bellows drive, the little finger is mechanically coupled to the ring finger, and the middle finger is hydraulically coupled to the ring finger. The thumb is actuated in the basic joint. In this way, the thumb and index finger can be moved separately, while the other fingers move together. The 4 drives are controlled by a 3 valve bank, the miniature pump sucks distilled water from a pressure storage tank to pump it into the drive chambers. The weight of the hand is about 350 g. The aluminum fingers were covered with a PU foam. In the basic joints, all long fingers have an elastically mounted abduction. Weiter lesen 2004 Fluidhand 7 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 8DOF, 8iDOF The Fluidhand 7 is designed as an experimental hand. It is used to develop new control methods and to test a new tank system that is capable of storing energy. The hand therefore has one valve for each of the 8 drives. A type of spring accumulator was developed for the hydraulic tank, which allows the hand to be closed quickly and silently without the hydraulic pump operating. Due to the large number of new and experimental components, the metacarpus has turned out to be significantly larger than the previous model, but at this stage of development, the anatomical shape and size of the hand is not a priority. Read more 2005 Fluidhand 8 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 8DOF, 4iDOF The Fluidhand 8 has 8 drives that are controlled via 5 valves. The bellows in the index finger and middle finger are each hydraulically coupled with each other, and the drives of the ring and little fingers are also connected with each other via a common valve. The special feature of this further development is that the metacarpus has been replaced by a hermetically sealed pressure body. Inside the metacarpus is an elastic tank in the form of a diaphragm, in which both the drive medium (vegetable oil) and the control electronics, valves and pump are integrated; all system components "float" permanently in the drive medium. Between the pressure body shell and the diaphragm there is again a two-phase gas with a constant pressure of 2 bar. Read more 2006 Fluidhand 9 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 5DOF, 5iDOF The Fluidhand 9 has 5 drives of different sizes. The base joints of the index finger and middle finger are equipped with stronger drives. The elastic fluid tank is located in the wrist. When the fingers are emptied, they are stretched and the fluid is pumped from the finger joints into the elastic tank in the wrist, bending the wrist and opening the hand further. The pump is noise-isolated and free-swinging in a CFRP tank; valves and controls are located in the metacarpus, which is completely covered with CFRP. The thumb with a drive in the base pivots between flat hand and opposition position to the three-point grip. Read more Current products

For the first time, hand prostheses can be conveniently charged via USB-C. Flexible LiPo batteries can be easily installed in any socket. VINCENTpower flex USB-C USB-C Charger The VINCENTpower flex USB-C makes it possible for the first time to charge a hand prosthesis easily via a USB port. What has been a matter of course for mobile devices of all kinds for many years is now also finding its way into prosthetics. With its robust and simple handling, the USB-C charging port is the ideal charging access. The prosthesis wearer only needs one charger for their prosthesis and other mobile devices such as smartphones or tablet PCs with the VINCENTpower USB power supply, certified as a medical device according to IEC 60601-1. In addition to the classic USB power supply, mobile energy storage devices such as our VINCENTpowerbank with a capacity of 10,000 mAh, but also solar cells or inductive charging systems can be used to charge the batteries. Charging via USB creates almost unlimited freedom of movement in terms of time and place for handling the prosthesis. You can focus on more important things than the next charging. Flexible LiPo cells The new battery system features LiPo cells whose shape can be adapted to the prosthesis stem. Unlike conventional LiPo cells, the individual cells, which were specially developed for this application and are only 4 mm high, can be plastically molded. They also differ from other battery cells in terms of their material and manufacturing process. The moldable LiPo battery cells are produced exclusively for Vincent Systems GmbH according to our specifications. The design has been patented by our company. Development and production are always carried out, tested and certified according to all required standards. Output voltage, protective circuit and polarity are identical to all common battery systems used in prosthetics. The 2-cell LiPo battery systems are compatible and safe to use with almost all hand prosthesis systems from common manufacturers available on the market - the only exceptions are hand systems or grippers with a higher battery voltage. This product is also available for technicians who have not yet received a VINCENT certificate. Flyer VINCENTpower flex USB-C

Previous model to the VINCENTevolution5: proven myoelectric technology, robust, lightweight, and waterproof. VINCENTevolution4 World leader at all levels WATERPROOF The world's first waterproof hand prosthesis according to IP68 (protection against prolonged submersion) EXTREMELY LIGHT The world's lightest multi-articular hand prosthesis EXTREMELY ROBUST The world's only prosthetic hand with a complete skeleton made of aluminum or titanium SENSE OF TOUCH The world's first and so far only hand prosthesis with sense of touch EASY OPERATION The world's most intuitive hand prosthesis, in which all grasp types are controlled by muscle signals PRECISION Precise powerful pinch grip enables the gripping of objects as small as ⌀1 mm CUSTOMIZABLE The world's only hand prosthesis in 5 sizes and 25 colour combinations Precision and quality The fourth generation of our hand prostheses, VINCENTevolution4, builds on the successful drive concept of VINCENTevolution3, with further improvements in gripping force and speed. The precision of the grips, the aesthetics and the quality of the hand are outstanding. Sophisticated control system A unique feature is the patented single-trigger control system, which allows all grip types to be controlled uniquely and reliably with fine sensitivity via the muscles alone. The hand does not need buttons on the back of the hand, motion controls or a smart device to select a function or grip. These types of control often take too long in practice, so the desired grips will be performe d more quickly by the natural hand. In contrast, all movements and handle changes of the VINCENTevolution4 are controlled exclusively and directly by the muscles of the prosthesis wearer and are therefore completely independent of the opposing natural hand or second prosthesis. The absence of buttons and the simplicity of the control system allow the user to safely control the prosthesis from any movement and in any situation and to achieve any grip change quickly and without errors. The prosthesis can thus optimally assist the opposite hand and thus contribute its full potential to everyday life. Uncompromisingly waterproof We have been able to implement many innovations with the new generation of hands. For example, the VINCENTevolution4 is the world's first hand prosthesis to achieve the IP68 degree of protection, which means it is uncompromisingly waterproof against continuous submersion up to a maximum of 1.5 meters for a maximum of 30 minutes, with no restrictions on the salt or chlorine content or the quality of the water. Elastic fingers The gel encapsulated fingers run more smoothly and the flexible mounting of the finger base joints allows the fingers to be squeezed together naturally when the hand is slightly spread. This not only makes the hand feel more natural, but the flexibility of the fingers also makes them much more robust and resistant to all kinds of stress. Adaptive shell For the first time, the shell of the metacarpus consists almost entirely of an elastic, high-strength material. The soft surface and its excellent adaptive properties significantly improve both the feel and the grip. In particular, the soft knuckles relieve the hand during support and extend the service life of the optionally available lifelike textile-based cosmetic gloves. A special innovation is also the completely dust-tight covering of the finger and thumb base joints. All openings of the hand have been closed by space-saving visor-like joint solutions. The optimized finger and thumb tips have been given finger nails and flattenings that enable even more precise gripping. The index finger is touch-screen compatible in the proven manner. Control with up to four muscles For the first time, a hand prosthesis has an integrated four-channel control system that allows up to four EMG sensors to be connected directly to the hand. The user can choose between two control variants: the single-signal control, in which all grips can be reached without problems and errors with only one switching signal, or the multi-channel control, in which several switching signals can be used to directly control the different grips. Controlling a bionic hand prosthesis has never been so easy and safe. Sensitive sense of touch A vibrotactile sense of touch has been integrated as standard in all VINCENT hand prostheses since VINCENTevolution1. The patented feedback of touch and gripping force provides the user with tactile information about finger strength through gentle coded vibrations of the hand, which are transmitted to the prosthesis shaft, and thus a feeling for the artificial hand. Gripping even fragile objects or sensitive control of the gripping force even without a direct eye contact to the object expand the options for the user. The extended hand feedback also stimulates the user's sensorimotor cortex, which can help reduce phantom limb pain. Tastes are different Five different basic colors give the VINCENTevolution4 an individual and unique design. The colors black, white, pearl white, transparent and natural are each available in combination with four different metal colors and titanium. 25 color combinations can be put together. A color change of the colored silicone parts is possible at any time. Less is more The smallest version of the VINCENTevolution4 XS weighs only approx. 390 g, making it not only the smallest and most stable multi-articulating hand prosthesis with 6 motors currently available, it is also by far the lightest.

In addition to the prosthesis-side joint, the shaft-side lamination plate (22 g / 0.05 lb) is also particularly light. The standard wrist and the transcarpal joint can be rotated noiselessly and gridlessly. The force required for rotation can be individually adjusted for each user. Both wrists can be combined with the joint VINCENTwrist flexion that can be angled. VINCENTwrist flexion The joint has a large range of movement and allows for flexion from -36° to +36°. lt is particularly suitable for bilateral users due to its switchless operation. The position is changed by pulling, moving and releasing. Our four wrist options are characterized by their low mounting depths. Due to the intelligent multi-material-mix, the wrists are particularly light and at the same time very robust and corrosion resistant.

1999 - Fluidhand 2 Up The new planar technology for manufacturing fluidic drives and kinematics was therefore ideally suited for actively moving miniature catheters and endoscopes. However, the forces achievable with planar film drives, which operate at a working pressure of 0.5-1 bar, were too low for the construction of an artificial hand. To generate higher grasping forces, a correspondingly higher working pressure had to act in the fluidic drives. For Fluidhand 2, “artificial muscles” based on thin silicone hoses were therefore used, which were sheathed with a flexurally flexible, stretch-resistant fabric made of polyamide. The tubes of the Fluidhand 2 were unfolded in the finger joints. When subjected to an overpressure of up to 4 bar, the joints expanded unilaterally and realized a curvature in the opposite joint direction. Each finger of the hand has two pneumatic muscles, the thumb has three, the wrist has four. The extension is done by a rubber band. The joint and support structure in the fingers, thumb and hand, was made of fiber-reinforced composite material. The artificial hand scored with its consistently soft and compliant structure, very fast movements and pronounced adaptability when grasping. The grasping forces achieved were around 2.5 N per finger. Objects heavier than 500 g could not yet be grasped with this hand. As in Fluidhand 1, the hand was driven by compressed air, which meant that a powerful compressor was required to operate the hand. Up

History of the Fluidhand and the VINCENTevolution 1998 Fluidhand 1 thin foil soft robot hand with 5DOF, 5iDOF This first soft hand consists of thin foil layers, which have been joined together to form more complex drives in a sandwich construction. Five fingers, built up from 6 foil layers each, functionally welded in pairs, with the middle two foils forming the skeletal structure filled with epoxy resin. The outer two foil layers each form a fluidic muscle. For this purpose, two thin films were welded together in such a manner that chambers were formed in a row and connected to each other. When this structure is inflated with a gas or liquid, it contracts by about 20% of its length, similar to the natural muscle, and the finger curls up like a bow. Read more 1999 Fluidhand 2 silicon tube soft sobot hand with 16DOF, 11iDOF The new planar technology for manufacturing fluidic drives and kinematics was therefore ideally suited for actively moving miniature catheters and endoscopes. However, the forces achievable with planar film drives, which operate at a working pressure of 0.5-1 bar, were too low for the construction of an artificial hand. To generate higher grasping forces, a correspondingly higher working pressure had to act in the fluidic drives. For Fluidhand 2, “artificial muscles” based on thin silicone hoses were therefore used, which were sheathed with a flexurally flexible, stretch-resistant fabric made of polyamide. Read more 2000 Fluidhand 3 rubber bulg soft hand prosthesis with 10DOF, 1iDOF With the third generation of the Fluidhand, Schulz transferred the technology of flexible fluid actuators to a hand prosthesis. To achieve higher grasping forces, the drives were modified for grasping even heavy objects. The unfolded silicone tubes reinforced with fabric were replaced by miniature folded bellows, which in turn were encased in fabric and attached to aluminum joints in the folds by nylon threads to keep their shape. Three drive elements in each finger, with the two distal bellows coupled together, and two drives in the thumb allow 14 joint axes to move in this hand, equivalent to 14 DOF at 10 iDOF. The fluid actuators were driven by means of miniature hydraulics. The control system, consisting of pump, valve, electronics, sensors and tank, was connected to the prosthesis via a hose approximately 1 m long. The hydraulic unit was the size of a portable telephone and was worn on the belt. Read more 2001 Fluidhand 4 rubber bulg soft hand prosthesis with 10DOF, 6iDOF The Fluidhand 4 has 10 flexible bellows drives, each of which, when pressurized, angles an aluminum joint by 90 degrees. Stretching is achieved by suction of the drive medium and by additional elastic bands. Each long finger has two drives that are fluidically coupled to each other and each leads to a common control valve in the metacarpus. The thumb has two individually movable drives, each of which is actuated by a separate valve. The drive medium is water. This hand prosthesis operates hydraulically for the first time. A miniature pump draws the fluid from an elastic reservoir in the forearm and pumps it at up to 6 bar via the valve bank into the bellows drive chambers. The pump and valves are controlled by a microprocessor in the hand, and the prosthesis wearer gives the control commands via myoelectric sensors. Read more 2002 Fluidhand 5 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 8DOF, 5iDOF The Fluidhand 5 was designed with the aim of integrating all system components of miniature hydraulics into the metacarpals in order to make the hand compatible with established socket systems. The prosthesis can be connected to all standard prosthetic sockets via a quicksnap wrist. Both the myoelectric sensors and the energy storage of the socket are used. The pump, fluid tank, valve bank and controller are located in and on the metacarpus. With the reduction in tank size, the number of fluidic drive was reduced to 8. The ring finger and little finger are flexed over one drive each. In the weight-optimized frame in sandwich construction, the elastic finger abduction was integrated. Five valves control the 8 drives of the hand, with the ring, little and middle fingers being hydraulically connected to each other. Read more 2003 Fluidhand 6 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 4DOF, 3iDOF The Fluidhand 6 is a particularly compact version of the hydraulic hand prosthesis, reduced to the essentials. The index, middle and ring fingers are each moved in the base joint via a flexible bellows drive, the little finger is mechanically coupled to the ring finger, and the middle finger is hydraulically coupled to the ring finger. The thumb is actuated in the basic joint. In this way, the thumb and index finger can be moved separately, while the other fingers move together. The 4 drives are controlled by a 3 valve bank, the miniature pump sucks distilled water from a pressure storage tank to pump it into the drive chambers. The weight of the hand is about 350 g. The aluminum fingers were covered with a PU foam. In the basic joints, all long fingers have an elastically mounted abduction. Weiter lesen 2004 Fluidhand 7 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 8DOF, 8iDOF The Fluidhand 7 is designed as an experimental hand. It is used to develop new control methods and to test a new tank system that is capable of storing energy. The hand therefore has one valve for each of the 8 drives. A type of spring accumulator was developed for the hydraulic tank, which allows the hand to be closed quickly and silently without the hydraulic pump operating. Due to the large number of new and experimental components, the metacarpus has turned out to be significantly larger than the previous model, but at this stage of development, the anatomical shape and size of the hand is not a priority. Read more 2005 Fluidhand 8 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 8DOF, 4iDOF The Fluidhand 8 has 8 drives that are controlled via 5 valves. The bellows in the index finger and middle finger are each hydraulically coupled with each other, and the drives of the ring and little fingers are also connected with each other via a common valve. The special feature of this further development is that the metacarpus has been replaced by a hermetically sealed pressure body. Inside the metacarpus is an elastic tank in the form of a diaphragm, in which both the drive medium (vegetable oil) and the control electronics, valves and pump are integrated; all system components "float" permanently in the drive medium. Between the pressure body shell and the diaphragm there is again a two-phase gas with a constant pressure of 2 bar. Read more 2006 Fluidhand 9 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 5DOF, 5iDOF The Fluidhand 9 has 5 drives of different sizes. The base joints of the index finger and middle finger are equipped with stronger drives. The elastic fluid tank is located in the wrist. When the fingers are emptied, they are stretched and the fluid is pumped from the finger joints into the elastic tank in the wrist, bending the wrist and opening the hand further. The pump is noise-isolated and free-swinging in a CFRP tank; valves and controls are located in the metacarpus, which is completely covered with CFRP.
